The Star Of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Has A Kitchen That's So Cozy And Artsy

Rachel Brosnahan, of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" fame, has an enviable New York apartment, and she opened her door to Architectural Digest for a comprehensive tour of her artsy interior. One of the most charming areas of her home is the cozy cooking space. The galley-style kitchen is full of personal items and pops of playful décor. If your goal is to curate a kitchen that looks creative and comfortable, take a cue from Brosnahan's accessible design.

One of the most notable elements of Brosnahan's kitchen is the paint color. As she told Architectural Digest, "Our original idea was to do kind of a plum color, but we're so obsessed with green and we couldn't get away from it." The medium, earthy green contrasts with the gold hardware, knobs, and pulls. If you love the look, these green kitchen ideas will add a pop of vibrancy to your home.

Another statement piece is the black-and-white checkered flooring, a cozy kitchen design trend that embraces vintage charm. Brosnahan explained: "The black-and-white floor isn't original to the kitchen, but there was something about it that felt kind of original to this space, like kind of a throwback. And I just love the way it felt like it grounded the space." Brosnahan added that the pattern gave an unexpected, countryside-inspired touch.

Beyond the finishes, there are several pieces that make Rachel Brosnahan's kitchen feel homey and customized. Rather than starting fresh in this grown-up space, she and her husband chose to include elements from their past apartments. For example, there is an oversized, yellow painting hung in the hallway that leads to the kitchen. She recounted its backstory: "A [theater] company was breaking down a set, and just let us walk off with this big yellow thing from their set. And we've actually taken it from apartment to apartment to apartment every place we've ever lived since. It's sort of a little piece of where we came from, a little piece of our history."

Another feature that she felt adamant about keeping was the landline telephone. Not only does it add character to the space, but the practicality is also an important factor. Brosnahan elaborated: "I wanted a landline, everybody was confused. Our contractor kept trying to take the phone out. I just feel like I've been in New York a long time, I've been here through some emergencies. If you lose power, I want a landline." If you're nostalgic for a landline, this is the modern way to use a vintage home phone. From oversized wall art to landline telephones, Brosnahan's kitchen is proof that you can curate a welcoming space by designing a room that feels true to you.
